Two St Peter's Square
Two St Peter's Square is a proposed high rise office building in St. Peter's Square, Manchester, England. Designed by SimpsonHaugh and Partners, the scheme has been controversial as it involved the demolition of a 1930s Art Deco but unlisted building.〔〔
== Century House ==
The site of Two St Peter's Square was previously occupied by four buildings: Century House, Sussex House, Bennett House and Clarendon House.〔
Century House was built in 1934〔 for the Friends Provident Society, a Quaker-friendly society that provided life insurance. It was constructed using Portland stone,〔 and featured a relief sculpture of George Fox,〔 as well as ornate carvings on the side of the six-storey building.〔
A campaign was started in June 2013 to save Century House.〔 The Twentieth Century Society strongly objected to the plans to demolish the building.〔 Manchester City Council approved the demolition of Century House on 25 July 2013.
